From f32890e41daca63b67074eb816b3d3d4458869b3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephen Finucane Date: Thu, 14 Jul 2022 11:33:19 +0100 Subject: Deprecate MySQL NDB Cluster Support Traditionally, the MySQL support in oslo.db has assumed use of the InnoDB storage engine. However, this isn't the only storage engine available and a few years ago an effort was made to add support for another storage engine, MySQL Cluster (NDB). The oslo.db aspects of this effort were tracked via bug 1564110 [1] and from reading this bug and looking at other patches related to this effort [2], it becomes obvious that this was never seen through to the completion and the OpenStack-wide effort never took off [3]. As a result, much of what is here is in-effect dead code now. Given no one is using this engine, there's no reason to keep it around. Deprecate it with an eye on removing it sooner rather than later.
